Unlike typical darkening sunglasses that adjust to UV rays (which do not pass through car windows), these superior sunglasses adapt to light intensity to provide optimal eye comfort while driving. Photochromic pigments inside the lenses react to visible light as it comes through a windshield, lightening or darkening the lens to block 80% to 91% of the light. The polarized, copper-tinted lenses have an antireflective coating that eliminates glare and reduces eyestrain. An oil-repellent coating prevents fingerprints and causes water to slide off of the lenses instead of beading and impairing visibility. The lenses block 100% of UV-A, -B and -C rays and are scratch- and impact resistant. With a lightweight metal frame, adjustable nosepiece, smooth rubber temple pads, and a hard-sided travel case. 6" W x 1 3/4" D. (3 oz.)

Sam Claflin: Hot Enough to Play Finnick Odair?by Hilton Hater at .
In Catching Fire, Finnick Odair is described as extraordinarily confident and attractive.
He beds ladies in the Capitol, he wears very little clothing, he handles a trident like a champion.
But in light of Entertainment Weekly giving fans their first look at Sam Claflin in this role, many have voiced their complaints online, most of which go something like this:
Having hoped for a well-known Hollywood beefcake such as Ryan Gosling or Channing Tatum to take on the character, Hunger Games lovers are going off to Yahoo.
"I personally don't think he is hot ENOUGH to be Finnick," writes a user named Macey. "He's hot, sure, just not the 'Finnick hot' impression you get from reading the book."
So let the debate commence, THGers: is Sam Claflin hot enough to portray Finnick Odair?

OMG u guys, looks aren't all that are used to select an actor!!!! come on, you know from other movie series they ALWAYS try and get a fresh face, obviously not ryan or channing...i love him- both in pirates 4 and in snow white and the huntsman-can't u see the above pic, that's HAWWWT i feel his presence through the computer screen
ugh...Gosling or Tatum??!? They don't look like what Finnick should AT ALL! Though maybe it's just personal taste..because I don't find either of those men to be attractive whatsoever. Anyway, I pictured Finnick to be so gorgeous..almost like inhumanly beautiful..I think it would be hard to find an actor like that..because everyone has a different picture in their minds of what constitutes a beautiful guy. Case in point: see above mention of Gosling and Tatum...yikes.
What can I say...Tatum and Gosling just don't do it for me. I can see how others might find them attractive..but I don't. Can't help who I'm attracted to, right? And the whole "sexiest man alive" is a bit of a joke...sexiest according to who?? I'm sure millions of women find someone else much sexier. Looks are subjective. :)

My Culligan mark 812 softener stopped working. I've cleaned the screen in the valve, the pickup and fill tube seems to working ok, has suction and discharges water into the brine tank. So today I emptied the brine tank of salt and cleaned it. I'm 73 and don't bend like I used to so this was a little hard for me, so before I refill with salt I'd appreciate some advice.
The tank has a finely perforated plastic disk on legs which keep it about 3 inches from the bottom of the tank. The stack fits tightly through this disk with the intake hole just below the bottom of the disk. When the disk was removed the bottom of the tank was filled with a very thick salt slush. This doesn't seem right to me, shouldn't there be only salt water below the disk? Also, the disk has a series of flexible tabs around the edge that appear to be meant to function as a seal between the rim of the disk and the wall of the tank. A number of these tabs are missing and I think this has allowed too much salt to enter under the disk. I didn't find any of the missing tabs when I cleaned the tank, but they may have been hidden in the slush. Question; do you think this is the source of problem, and if so where would I get a replacement disk or any suggestions on repairing this one. Last question: what is the proper settings for the stops on the float rod that determine float travel up and down.
Hope this description makes sense! Any advice, suggestions or info very much appreciated!!

OPEN MIND Technologies AG
General Business Terms and Conditions of OPEN MIND Technologies AG
I. Conclusion of the Contract
OPEN MIND Technologies AG completes out all current and future sales, deliveries, and other services exclusively under the conditions described below. They also apply in cases where they are not expressly referenced. Other standard business conditions do not become part of the contract, even if OPEN MIND Technologies AG has not expressly disagreed with them.
Unless otherwise specified as binding, our quotations are always non-binding and subject to change without notice. Additions, modifications, or additional agreements as well as possible assurances provided by our employees by telegraph, telephone, or verbally always require our written confirmation in order to become effective; transmission via fax is sufficient.
OPEN MIND Technologies AG reserves the right to make the conclusion of the contract dependent on a prepayment, deposit, or provision of security.
II. Prices
All quoted prices are subject to change without notice. Unless otherwise specified, prices are ex warehouse and net of VAT; shipping and handling are not included.
III. Delivery
The delivery dates specified by OPEN MIND Technologies AG are guidelines. The term of delivery starts when the order confirmation is sent. If the conclusion of the contract is dependent on a prepayment, deposit, or provision of security in terms of Section I, the term of delivery does not start until payment for this commitment has been received.
Default in delivery on the part of OPEN MIND Technologies AG only occurs if the customer, within a reasonable period after the delivery is due, submits a written reminder to make the delivery with a grace period of at least 4 (four) weeks and if OPEN MIND Technologies AG does not make the delivery within this grace period.
If OPEN MIND Technologies AG or one of its suppliers is prevented from making the delivery in a timely manner due an act of god or other circumstances beyond their control, the term of delivery is extended by a reasonable period required to correct the situation that prevents performance. In case performance is impossible for reasons beyond the control of OPEN MIND Technologies AG or if performance would be unreasonable, OPEN MIND Technologies AG is relieved of its obligation to perform.
The indemnifiable amount of damage caused by a delay is limited to an amount no greater than the net order amount of the goods and services affected by the delay.
IV. Shipment and Passing of Risk
Passing of risk to the buyer occurs no later than with the transfer to the person instructed to make the shipment. Deliveries are not insured.
V. Payment Terms
Payments for the supply of goods are due 14 days from the invoice date. Payments for services are due as soon as the services are completed.
All payments must be made by the due date with no deductions. Set-off is only permitted in case of legally established or undisputed counter claims.
OPEN MIND Technologies AG calculates late payment charges at the rate of 4 % above the prime rate of the European Central Bank but no less than 9 %, unless the customer provides proof that the loss suffered by OPEN MIND Technologies AG was lower.
In case the customer's financial situation deteriorates significantly, OPEN MIND Technologies AG reserves the right to request immediate payment of all amounts receivable from the customer to the extent that they are not in dispute, to assert the right of retention against all claims made by the customer, and to request matching payments with deliveries or provision of security.
In the normal course of business, the customer is responsible for immediately verifying the accuracy and completeness all invoices.
VI. Retention of Title
OPEN MIND Technologies AG retains title to all products supplied under the business relationship until the entire amount due has been paid. This also applies if the customer makes a payment for a particular delivery (open item retention).
The retention of title also extends to products that have been processed, combined, or resold (extended retention of title) and that contain the products subject to retention of title. Resale is only permitted in the normal course of business. Title to the new items is automatically assigned to OPEN MIND Technologies AG in advance (assignment in advance). In case of extra security, the customer can request the release of the excess security.
If the payment terms are not met, in case of unauthorized commitment of funds, and if insolvency proceedings are commenced against the customer, OPEN MIND Technologies AG can immediately take possession of the goods subject to retention of title.
VII. Warranty – Use of Software Products
The requirements of the corresponding license agreement must be considered for the use of software.
Software products cannot be guaranteed to be entirely free of errors. The liability of OPEN MIND Technologies AG is limited to ensuring that the product is fundamentally usable in terms of the product description and the instructions for use.
No liability is assumed for changes made by the customer. In principle, OPEN MIND Technologies AG does not assume any liability for damages resulting from incorrect use of the software or from failures (i.e. backups) that fall under the responsibility of the customer.
The customer is obligated to carefully inspect deliveries for errors and quantities in a timely manner, and to report possible deficiencies immediately. This also applies to concealed deficiencies which must be reported as soon as they are discovered. If these obligations are not fulfilled, OPEN MIND Technologies AG is not liable for these deficiencies.
Under the terms of the warranty, OPEN MIND Technologies AG has the right to choose between subsequent improvement or delivery of replacements. If OPEN MIND Technologies AG should not be able to or willing to do so, if subsequent improvement or the delivery of replacements in particular is delayed beyond a reasonable grace period for reasons under the control of OPEN MIND Technologies AG, or if subsequent improvement or the delivery of replacements fails for any other reason, the customer has the right to abatement or conversion. Further warranty claims are excluded.
VIII. Limitation
Warranty claims expire 12 months after the transfer of goods, and can only be asserted directly by the customer.
Any liability on the part of OPEN MIND Technologies AG for damages of any kind – financial damages, consequential damages caused by defects, and lost profits as well as damages resulting from the breach of obligations arising from letters of intent and because of default at the time the contract is concluded – is excluded.
This does not apply to claims for damages resulting from the lack of a warranted characteristic or from the breach of an obligation that is required to make proper completion of the contract possible (cardinal obligation). In any case, the liability for damages is limited to the foreseeable loss. Should the amount of the foreseeable loss exceed the contract value, liability is limited to the contract value. However, the limitation of liability outlined above does not apply to damages caused by OPEN MIND Technologies AG wilfully or through gross negligence.
IX. Final Clauses
Should all or part of the general business terms and conditions not have become part of the contract or have become ineffective, the remainder of the contract remains effective. In place of the ineffective provision, an effective provision that comes closest to the desired economic result is considered as having been agreed on.
The place of execution is Munich. The parties agree that the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany apply. To the extent permitted under §38 ZPO (code of civil procedure), Munich is the sole jurisdiction.
The assignment of customer claims to third parties is excluded.

Anniston police Sgt. Chris Sparks said officers pulled over Corda Lebron Phillips, of Anniston, for a traffic violation on the corner of McKleroy Avenue and McArthur Drive at 9:36 p.m. Tuesday.
According to Sparks, officers found a plastic bag containing smaller bags of marijuana. The sergeant said the smaller bags appeared to be packaged for sale, which led to Phillips receiving a felony charge of marijuana possession.
Sparks declined to give the weight of the bag of marijuana, saying the department's crime lab typically makes that determination.

|From the HSLDA E-lert Service:
Home School Legal Defense Association
HSLDA's Homeschooling Thru High School Newsletter -- October 2005
HSLDA's Homeschooling Thru High School Newsletter -- October 2005
Dear Friends,
September is in our rearview mirror, and we're heading into October
with all of you. The newly sharpened pencils and crisp new books with
which you started out in September may all seem a little dull right
now--but let's keep going with a prayer of thanksgiving for the new
school year and the children we have the opportunity to train and
Ins and Outs of the SATs, ACTs, and PSATs
The SAT and ACT tests are primarily used for college admission
purposes, and if your child is college bound, these tests are
important. Even if your child is not currently thinking about
attending college, you may still want to consider having your child
take either the SAT or ACT. Your child's post high school plans may
change one day, and having an SAT or ACT score on file will facilitate
the college entrance process.
On the other hand, if you definitely know at this point that your
child will never pursue college after high school, skip to the end of
this email and check out the new additions to the Homeschooling Thru
High School website. No matter what your child's after-high school
plans, you'll find new listings posted on the site beneficial to
For those interested in pursuing college, let's talk first about the
PSAT/NMSQT: The Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test/National Merit
Scholarship Qualifying Test.
The PSAT is primarily taken by 11th grade students--those students
having one more year of high school prior to graduation. The PSAT test
is the qualifier for National Merit Scholarship consideration, and
only 11th graders are considered for these scholarships. You may
register your 10th grader to take the PSAT, but realize that taking
the PSAT in the 10th grade year is basically for practice only. No
consideration will be given to a 10th grader for qualifying for a
National Merit Scholarship no matter how well the student does on the
test. The PSAT test has three sections--Math, Verbal/Critical
Reasoning, and Writing.
The PSAT is given once each year--this year's test dates are October
12, 2005, or October 15, 2005, depending on the test date chosen by
the school administering the test.
The test maker is the College Board and its website provides all the
necessary information regarding this test and how to register.
See the special information page for homeschoolers taking the PSAT:
Unlike the SAT, you cannot register for the PSAT online. You must
register your child directly with the local public or private high
school that is administering the PSAT. (Testing sites are provided on
the above website). Be aware that some local high schools order their
PSAT tests very early so we strongly advise contacting the high school
guidance office during the summer to ask whether your child can
register to take the test. Some public schools may be hesitant to
allow a homeschooler to sit for the test, but don't let that deter
you. Keep calling schools in your area (both public and private) until
you find a school that will accommodate your child. The PSAT test fee
is $12, but schools may charge an additional fee for administrative
costs over and above this cost. Note that the PSAT College Board
website (link above) states that the test administrator will provide
the state homeschool number for your student to enter as his "school
code" on the test.
Once you've registered for the PSAT with the local school where your
student will take the test, be sure to ask the guidance office for a
free PSAT Student Guide. The Student Guide provides test taking tips,
practice problems with explanatory answers, and even a full length
practice test that will enable your child to feel comfortable with the
format and types of problems that he will encounter on the PSAT.
Now let's talk about the SAT--the Scholastic Aptitude Test. Again, the
maker of the SAT is the College Board. Everything you could possibly
want to know about the SAT can be found on the College Board website:
The SAT test is an aptitude and reasoning test used by most colleges
for admission purposes. The SAT has Math and Verbal sections, as well
as a Writing section that includes writing an essay. Recently revised
in 2005, the SAT will be given on the following test dates: October 8,
2005, November 5, 2005, December 3, 2005, January 28, 2006, April 4,
2006, May 6, 2006, and June 3, 2006. Registration for these tests can
be done online, and each test date has strict registration deadlines.
Keep in mind that since most colleges are making admissions decisions
in the spring of the school year, scores from the December test date
are most likely the last scores that can be considered for students
desiring to enter college as freshmen the following fall. The fee for
the SAT is $41.50. Numerous testing locations are provided and include
public and private high schools, as well as community college
There are no age limits to taking the SAT (although children younger
than 13 may not register online; they would need to register through
the mail). A student may take the SAT as many times as he desires.
Most colleges continue to take the highest score from each section of
the test (Math, Verbal and Writing) and add them together for a total
test score even if the highest test score on a section was taken on
different test dates. However, you should check with individual
colleges to find out their policy for reviewing test scores. It is a
good idea to take the test at least twice since most scores do rise on
the second attempt simply because a student is more comfortable and
knows what to expect the second time around. Your student may request
that their SAT scores be sent to four colleges for free. Score
reports for additional colleges may be requested for an additional
fee. When applying to colleges and requesting SAT tests to be sent to
a particular college, it's important to note that all SAT scores taken
on different test dates are sent to the college.
SAT preparation is essential in order to score well on the test.
Numerous test books, CDs, and videos as well as SAT prep classes and
individual SAT tutors are available. Check out the HSLDA high school
website for helpful recommendations for preparing to take the SAT,
PSAT or ACT tests:
Also, you should pick up from either a public school or library a SAT
test preparation booklet that provides test-taking tips and practice
Don't confuse the SAT I general test, as explained above, with the SAT
II Subject Tests. The SAT II Subject Tests are tests given in
particular subjects that some colleges use for placement purposes.
Check with an individual college regarding any requirements it may
have regarding the need to take SAT II Subject Tests. See the College
Board website for details regarding the SAT II Subject tests.
Lastly, the ACT is another test that colleges may use in the
admissions process. In most cases, colleges will accept either SAT or
ACT scores--however some Midwestern colleges prefer the ACT. Again, it
would be wise to check with individual colleges to determine if they
have a test preference. The ACT test measures knowledge in four
subject areas: English, Math, Reading, and Science. The cost of the
basic test is $29.50. The basic ACT does not include a writing
section, but for an additional $14 you may register to take the ACT
Writing test. The ACT website provides a listing of colleges that
either recommend or require the writing section of the ACT.
Test dates for the ACT are October 22, 2005, December 10, 2005,
February 11, 2006, April 8, 2006 and June 10, 2006. (Again, register
early, as there are strict registration deadlines.)
Check out the ACT website for detailed registration and test
information--www.act.org. A student may register to take the ACT
beginning in the 6th grade, and may take it as many times as he
chooses. A top score on the ACT is 36, with the average score around
22. When applying to colleges, you may direct that only specific ACT
test scores be sent to the colleges that you designate. Although ACT
test scores are never erased, you may request that only your highest
scores be reported to colleges.
Once your student takes the PSAT, SAT or ACT, be prepared for your
mailbox to be stuffed with brochures, postcards, and information from
various colleges. Data on students taking the tests are supplied to
colleges, and colleges are interested in having their materials in the
hands of your students. Take advantage of this free information from
the colleges to pique your child's interest in investigating various
college options.
Both the College Board and ACT websites are excellent sources of
information regarding colleges, recommended high school courses,
majors, career choices, and other information useful for both parents
and students. If your student is interested in a particular college,
check that college's website to find out the average SAT or ACT score
of admitted students. It will give your student an idea of the test
scores that a college is looking for. (Realize though that much more
than a test score goes into college admission decisions. Other
important considerations are high school courses taken, application
essays, extracurricular activities, leadership positions, etc.).
We hope this information on the PSAT, SAT, and ACT tests helps to
answer questions you may have had regarding these tests. As always, we
are available to chat with HSLDA members about any specific questions
you may have regarding college entrance tests.
Happy testing!
Looking ahead to November, we'll take a look at transcripts,
evaluating credits, and calculating GPAs.
Know that we pray for you as you do the tough but grand work of
teaching your high schooler at home.
Joy to you,

WELLS - A hat trick from Matt Mantta helped Jeffers to an 8-0 whipping of Negaunee on the first night of the Dick Johnsen Memorial Tournament Friday.
Mantta added two assists as the Jets finished off the Miners in the minimum two periods.
"I was proud of the fact they went out and played their game. They dictated the pace and didn't let up," Jeffers coach David Bekkala said.
Troy Dunstan opened the scoring with a power-play goal at 8:56 before Travis Wesa and Mantta tacked on tallies in the last minute of the first period.
The onslaught continued in the second, with Wesa getting his second of the game at 1:45. Nick Harris and Ross Michaels also scored before Mantta put in a pair to trigger the goal-differential rule.
Dax Durocher made seven saves to get the shutout for Jeffers (5-3), which will play Escanaba, the host, in today's championship.

Chloé - Pre-Fall 2008
View Gallery
(NEW YORK) For his pre-fall collection, Chloé's Paulo Melim Andersson looked to the bohemian mood of '70s Saint-Germain-des-Prés. This translated into whimsical fur coats--some embellished with rosette details--perfect for Kate Hudson in Almost Famous. Embroidered dresses and skirts, velvet jackets, plenty of cozy knits, and a mélange of patterns and colors rounded out the offerings. Strappy suede and leather open-toed high-heeled boots paired with fuchsia tights gave off a vibe of insouciant chic.

Soulo wireless microphone
Bought this for my daughter for Christmas and very disappointed with the poor quality of the product, especially as sold through A Bought this for my daughter for Christmas and very disappointed with the poor quality of the product, especially as sold through Apple. The sound quality is terrible when it actually works and you are very restricted with the Soulo App and have to buy extra songs because it only comes with a couple of very old songs like Amazing Grace! You also have to spend another £15/£20 on an adapter for the newer ipad/phones because it has the old style connection. You can sing along to your own iTunes library but cannot record yourself due to licensing laws. Not user friendly especially with younger users who want to record themselves singing up to date music. …

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Foley's finest wine is modeled after Pride Mountain's Claret. The 2010 Claret (80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot) boasts fabulous aromas of licorice, espresso beans, blueberries, blackberries and subtle smoky oak. With full-bodied texture, terrific purity and layers of..

Cellar/Tasting Notes Fleming's 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon boasts gorgeous depth and precision from start to finish. Hints of licorice, sweet spices and menthol are layered into an expressive core of dark fruit in this beautiful, complete Cabernet Sauvignon. The aromas and flavors are naturally quite primary, but there is..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Medium ruby-red. High-pitched aromas of cassis, licorice, violet and herbs, with a strong mineral component contributing to the impression of purity.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Good saturated medium ruby. Riper on the nose than the young 2011, offering scents of blackcurrant, minerals, graphite, licorice and leather. Wonderfully suave and silky in the mouth, with terrific concentration and aromatic lift to the savory dark berry, crushed stone and mineral flavors. ..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Deep ruby. Slightly roasted, inky aromas of dark berries and licorice. Lush and very smooth in the middle palate, but currently a bit dominated by its underlying structure. Hiding more than it showing today. Tannins are substantial but quite velvety for the vintage.

CHICAGO — Today Northeastern Illinois University (NEIU) and Korean American Community Services held a ceremony to mark the beginning of a new formal partnership between the two institutions.

Hahs said, "We are taking the opportunity, presented by this important new location, to expand our relationships with community partners, like the Korean American Community Services. We believe it is important to be a community partner and we want the community to feel welcomed at Northeastern Illinois University."
Choi added, "Through an MOU, KACS clients may enroll at Northeastern to further their education, Northeastern students may choose to volunteer at KACS, including our ESL tutorial sessions, and Northeastern and KACS will conduct community-engaged researches that translate research findings into program implementation."
About Northeastern Illinois University
Northeastern Illinois University is a fully accredited public university serving 11,000 full and part-time undergraduate and graduate students in the Chicago metropolitan area. NEIU engages its diverse campus community in a rich environment of learning, teaching and scholarship.

Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor
What is a the purpose of the Accelerator Pedal Sensor?
Unlike the cable driven design used on older vehicles, many modern vehicles use a "drive by wire" system to connect the gas pedal to the engine's throttle body. A sensor on the pedal tells the engine's computer how much the pedal has been pressed, which in turn relays this info to a motor on the throttle body and allows fresh air into the engine.
How do I know if my sensor has gone bad?
If you press the gas pedal and the throttle body does not turn the throttle blade to allow air into the engine, you may have a bad sensor. If this sensor fails, you will typically see a "check engine" light appear on the dash stating theres an issue with the pedal or throttle circuit.

But if you're willing to take a chance, Nakfoor will amaze you. At Lakeview's InVision psychic school, she uses extraordinary aura-sensing capabilities to read your current state of mind. She sticks to topics of your choosing and delves into past, present, and future. Her scarily dead-on intuition keeps you focused throughout the hour-long session. Beyond her psychic capabilities, Nakfoor helps suss out energy blocks in your life (it works — trust us) and provides guidance on working through bad relationships, business woes, etc. She also reminds you that there's always free will (read: You control your choices — she's just the medium).

Born: 7/30/1956
Birthplace: Lone Tree, Okla.
Hill received her law degree from Yale University, and after a stint at the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) taught law at the University of Oklahoma. In 1991 she was catapulted into the public spotlight when she brought allegations of sexual harassment against Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas. At Thomas's Senate confirmation hearings, Hill testified that Thomas had made unwelcome sexual advances while he was her supervisor at the EEOC in the 1980s. Although Thomas's appointment was subsequently confirmed, Hill's testimony brought the issue of sexual harassment to public attention, forever changing relations between men and women in the workplace. In 1997 Hill published Speaking Truth to Power, a personal memoir and study of her involvement in the Thomas hearings. She has resumed her teaching career at Brandeis University.

Cup Plates
Cup plates are small glass or china plates that held the cup while a diner of the mid-nineteenth century drank coffee or tea from the saucer. The most famous cup plates were made of glass at the Boston and Sandwich factory located in Sandwich, Massachusetts. Originally, cup plates were made of blown glass, but later of pressed glass. There have been many new glass cup plates made recently for sale to gift shops or limited edition collectors. These are similar to the old plates but can be recognized as new.

"High School the Musical" star Zac Efron puts down the microphone and picks up a lightsaber in his next film Seventeen Again playing "a middle-age man suddenly transported back to his teenage years." Of course, no teen years are complete without a few Star Wars collectibles, right?
MTV.com reports:
"I could have gone out and just played a kid somewhere and had a blast. But now I'm playing a 40-year-old guy," Efron said. "It's kind of fun playing an adult." It's a mantle he wears comfortably. Indeed, the day we visited with Efron we found him in a house only an adult could think of as fun, where hundreds of Star Wars and Lord of the Rings toys stood behind glass, boxed for eternity to accumulate value. Think the collection in The 40-Year-Old Virgin. Now think of the collection from The 40-Year-Old Virgin times 10.
In one scene, wearing a V-neck T-shirt and a red plaid shirt, Efron's character haughtily navigates his way through a gathered crowd, dismissing an approaching girl, passing a beer to a friend and even proving that there's a way to act cynical while twirling a lightsaber.

Business First of Louisville (Kentucky) - Stimulus-funded program provided 814 summer jobs
[DISTRICTS MENTIONED: John Yarmuth (KY-3) and R-Brett Guthrie (KY-2): Voted NO on Recovery Act]
The WorkNow Kentucky program provided jobs for 814 residents of Jefferson and Bullitt County last summer, according to the office of Louisville Metro Mayor Jerry Abramson.
A total of 107 private businesses, nonprofit organizations and government agencies employed WorkNow Kentucky participants in the two counties. More than 700 participants worked 30 hours or more each week.

The Times Herald (Pennsylvania) - Construction workers aided by local 'stimulus' project
The development of Derstine Run in Hatfield and Towamencin townships -- a project funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009 -- is a temporary job for subcontractors managed by general contractor Harkins Builders of Marriottsville, Md., and Media, Pa.
However, the joy of having a job retained due to the stimulus package is a permanent feeling for those involved with the project.
According to Karen Barbrow, of Advanced Living Communities, the company that will own Derstine Run and currently oversees Schwenkfeld Manor in Towamencin, the development will create 25 new construction jobs and will retain a total number of 148 jobs. [10/7/10]
The Morning Journal (Ohio) - Lorain, Elyria, LCCC agree school funds helpful
[DISTRICTS MENTIONED: Marcy Kaptur (OH-9) and Betty Sutton (OH-13)]
Local school officials knew they had to make the money last when Lorain County Community College and the Lorain and Elyria school districts received federal stimulus funding through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
All agree that the money did its job.
At LCCC, the funds have been used for three specific reasons: to help retrain displaced or laid off workers, to keep tuition the third lowest in the state and to provide financial aid to students who work part-time campus jobs.
To date, more than 600 students found jobs through a program called Make Your Layoff Payoff.
Lorain City Schools had four pots of money to work with: Title 1, Early Childhood Special Education, Special Education and State Fiscal Stabilization Funds (SFSF).
Over two years, the district has used more than $4 million to keep kindergarten teachers, safety officers and media clerks/librarians with SFSF money. [10/7/10]
Cibola Beacon (New Mexico) - Grants Cuts Ribbon For New Bridge
[MEMBER MENTIONED: Harry Teague (NM-2)]
Nearly 30 people, community leaders and residents, gathered to officially open the [Nimitz] bridge as rainwater flowed steadily beneath it.
The structure cost nearly $1 million and was paid for by stimulus funds.
Joshua Sanchez, a representative of Congressman Harry Teague's office, said, "Teague was very glad to be a partner in helping access the funds."
Sanchez read Teague's statement to the crowd: "I feel the bridge is simply another success story in regard to the federal stimulus program in which I supported. The funds are putting American back to work. I am eager to be a part of another project . . . together we can find solutions to our problems." [10/7/10]

GEO-DC Blog
Read about what's happening in Washington, DC and learn of opportunities to impact legislation and policies.
Action Alert
Opportunity to Comment on the Environmental Protection Agency Standards of Performance for Greenhouse Gas Emissions for New Stationary Sources: Electric Utility Generating Units
This proposed rule will amend the new source performance standards (NSPS) for electric generating units (EGUs) and will establish the first NSPS for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The rule will establish CO2 emission standards for certain new and reconstructed fossil fuel-fired electric generating units. Rules for existing sources can only be implemented after finalization of new-source rules.
You may comment on any element of this regulation and/or EPA's lengthy justification, but the requirement for geologic storage of the captured CO2 or its use in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) may be of special interest to some AAPG members. Deadline 10 March 2014.
Start Planning for AAPG Congressional Visits Days, CVD, March 10-12, 2014
Plan to join a group of AAPG members in Washington, DC, next March for Congressional Visits Days.
AAPG CVD will be March 10-12, 2014.
This is an opportunity for you to help raise visibility and support for the geosciences, and discuss the science behind the energy issues important to you and other AAPG members.
A constructive visit from citizen geoscientists centered on the importance of geoscience, and the science behind energy issues such as hydraulic fracturing is the most effective way to inform and influence federal policy.
How it works:
- Monday afternoon will include an introductory session with AAPG policy staff providing information on how Congress works, how to conduct congressional visits, and an update on relevant legislation and federal programs.
- Tuesday will consist of visits with federal agencies such as the Department of Energy, US Geological Survey, Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement and Bureau of Land Management.
- Wednesday will be devoted to visits with members of Congress and/or their staff.
- Fact sheets and talking points about petroleum geoscience issues will be provided. Plan to bring examples from your experience, including the impacts of federal legislation or regulation on your congressional district.
All of the scheduling and logistics for the workshop and visits will be arranged by AAPG staff.

The Baby That Woke Up From a Dead Sleep and Started Dancing When "Gangnam Style" Came On
This one's from February, and it's only gotten about 10 million hits. But it was hilarious, partly because of how hard the girl's SISTER laughed. Click
The "BatDad" Vine Videos
They got big back in September. Basically, a guy wore a Batman Halloween mask, stared straight into the camera, and spoke in an over-the-top Christian Bale Batman voice . . . exclusively about DAD STUFF. Click
The Girl Who Accidentally Lit Herself on Fire While She Was Twerking
It was while she was doing a handstand against a door. Then her roommate came home and knocked her into a candle. It ended up being a HOAX by Jimmy Kimmel, but it was still one of the most memorable videos of the year. Check it out
The Guy Who Woke Up from Surgery, Didn't Recognize His Wife . . . And Asked if She Was a Model
Some people thought he was faking it. But even if he was, his wife seemed to buy it . . . so he's golden for LIFE. Since it was posted at the end of August, it's gotten over 13 million hits on YouTube. Click
The Baby That Got Emotionally Overwhelmed When Her Mom Sang a Rod Stewart Song
The song was "My Heart Can't Tell You No", which Sara Evans also covered in 2011. And the baby SEEMED to be crying because of how BEAUTIFUL it was. The video has gotten over 28 million hits since October.

The "Ryan Gosling Won't Eat His Cereal" Videos
Back in May, some guy started posting Vine videos of dramatic Ryan Gosling movie scenes. But he set it up so it looked like Ryan was rejecting a delicious spoonful of cereal. Click
The Woman Who Quit Her Job by Dancing Through Her Office
In September, a woman named Marina Shifrin quit her job by showing up early for work, and dancing through her office to "Gone" by Kanye West. A week later, the song cracked Billboard's top 20 . . . EIGHT YEARS after it first came out. Click
"Goats Yelling Like Humans"
The first two-minute montage was posted in February, and it racked up over 20 million hits this year. Part two was posted a month later, but it wasn't quite as good. And of course there were the mashups it inspired, starting with the TAYLOR SWIFT screaming goats version of her "I Knew You Were Trouble" video.
The NFL "Bad Lip Reading" Video
The Bad Lip Reading guys also did videos for "The Walking Dead" and "Game of Thrones" this year. But the one from January featuring NFL players speaking gibberish was their most popular, with over 45 million hits on YouTube. Check it out
The "Harlem Shake" Videos
There were a TON of them, but the one from February by soldiers in Norway has gotten over 95 million hits. Check it out
Ylvis's "The Fox"
Like "Gangnam Style" last year, it's a clear winner. It's gotten 290 MILLION hits on YouTube since September. And the song hit #6 on Billboard's Hot 100.
